The original bakery was destroyed by fire in 1910 and a new building was completed that same year, from which Robert Whyte operated a grocery store and bakery. As can be seen from the latest photograph (2025) the building has been beautifully restored. References: Walker, Michael. 2010. Simon's Town : An historical review with early postcard illustrations.
